Abstract:
The research sought to explore the impact of pranayama on hormonal changes among women with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Thirty participants aged 25 to 35 were randomly selected from the Thanjavur region of Tamil Nadu for the study. They were divided into two equal groups: The Control Group and the Experimental Group (Pranayama). Training sessions were conducted for twelve weeks, five days a week. The control group received no intervention and remained separate throughout the study. The dependent variable chosen was Total testosterone levels. Pre and post-tests were administered before and after the intervention respectively. The collected data was analyzed using covariance analysis (ANCOVA). The findings indicated that twelve weeks of yoga pranayama led to significant changes in selected hormonal variables.
